A little barrel work for a PR

[Pa SxS]

I know very little about gunsmithing and nothing about metallurgy , but can't the dolls head be heated and bent down assuming there is clearence under the dolls head in the well?

Shims are easy to find and cheap on the internet.

Not really. Then the front of the extension would have to be refitted. And besides, enough heat to allow any bending would melt the solder holding the extension on. If you want it bent, dropping it on the floor would be a better method.
